I BY TELEfJBAPn TO TUB TRIBUNE] • London, Tuesday, Sept. 6, 1870. _ ; The special correspondent of the Tri bune at McMahon’s Headquarters, a i French officer, who witnessed the battle of j Sedan from tbe French side, and was shut up in Sedan with the French army, bav ins; been released, sends tbo following ac count, dated Sedan, Sept. 3: THE EVENTS OF AUG. 31. j I pass over all that has happened since I wrote you from Btezires, to come at once j to the events of Aug. 31 and Sept. I—the latter the saddest day the French arms havo ever witnessed. Early io the morning of the 31st, orders were gisen to bring into Sedan all the wagon-trains and oxen which had been left outside the glacis. By this time the streets were blocked up with troops of every kind which had entered the town j during the night. I tried to ride down to j the Fort de Paris, where the train was stationed to carry the orders. I was obliged to get off my bone and make my i way as belt I could between the horses I and caissons which choked up every j street and so.uare of the town. As I ; reached the Port de Paris, I met the wagon train entering as fast as possible, followed closely by the rushing oxen and inter mingled with the weeping and terror stricken peasantry of the neighborhood flying into the town for protection. They little knew that it was about the worst place the? could have chosen. The gates on that side were immediately afterward closed, while the troops slowly filed out through the opposite gate toward Douay, where all McMahon’s forces were posted, expecting to be again attacked by the Prussians, who had close followed up the French army. POSITIONS OF THE CONTENDING FORCES About 10 o’clock that momiDg cannon ading was heard six or seven miles away, toward the village of Bazeille. I went up on the rampart overlooking the country in that direction. Thence I could see the Prnseian position, and with my field-glass could watch the firing; but I could not sec the French lines, which wero hid from me by trees about a mile from the town. I therefore, at noon, walked out of the town at the Porto de Balan and ascen ded on my left tho rising ground which is close by the town. Not more than half a mile from the gate I passed Brough regiments of icservo infantry. Their arms were piled and the firos smoking, tho soup not having long been eaten. I continued ascending, and cvery wlicro passed reserve corps of infantry and artillery. I got higher and higher, from hillock to hillock, till I reached a battery of reserve, the guns of which were uolim bored and placed facing the rear of the French left. This battery was so pointed as to fire ovor tho crest of the rising ground on which I stood. About a quarter of a mile distant, in front of a little church yard, stood also several officers of the dif ferent corps which wero stationed on my right and left, all being of tho reserve. From the point I had now reached, a charming prospect was within view. The French line of battle extended right in front,, spreading on the slope of the ground w hich forms one side of this basin of the Meuse. In front of the center of the French lines, and lower down in the vale, was tho village of Bazeille, which was then beginning to burn, the Prussian shells having set lire to it. Parallel almost to tho front of tho French positions ran tho Mouse, crossed by a bridge a little to ihe left of Bazeille. Tho French right was u[ion a knot of wooded ground held by tirailleur s, tbe wooded ground extending nearly to tho grounds of Sedan. The lelt was lost to my sight behind the inequali ties af tho ground toward the road to Bouillon. As far ns I could see, on the right and left and in front of me, were massed regiments of all arms; hut toward tho left, on tho second line, was a very largo forco of heavy cavulry—dragoons and cuirassiers. The tun was shining brightly, and every thing was plainly visible. The glittering of weapons, the bright and showy colors ol the French uniforms, the white smoko curling under tho blue sky or lingering like vapor beneath the trees, the lurid Haines rising from the burning village ol Bazciile, all seen from a commanding po sition, formed a spootaole such as one has but rarely tho opportunity to witnu s Tho prircipal Prussian batteries were di rectly opposite the French center on a plateau or table-land which terminated abruptly, end mado it a very strong po sition. For some timo cannonading continued on both sides. At two o’clock a force of PRUSSIAN INFANTRY ADVANCED across the bridge in tho village of Douzy, and immediately there began a very sharp fusillade, lasting, however, not more than ten minutes. I think tho Frenoh must have lost ground in that encounter, al though l could not see it because of some trees iliat intervened ; but a battery of six mitrailleuses advanced and opened fire through tho Ircos. Six volleys came all at once. The Prussians fell hurriedly back, leaving whole ranks behind, which had gone down like those leaden soldiers which children play with. About 4:30 the firing bad ceased every where. The village, which had been blazing nil day, was still smoking. The French remained in the same position.— Though tho day had apparently been without result, its description is a neces sary prelude to the bittor story of the morrow. At 5:30 1 returned to the town. THE KMPKItOR RESIGNS HIS COMMAND OF THE ARMY. The Emperor who bad arrived during the night had issued a proclamation which was posted on the walls, saying that he had confided tho command of the armies to the generals whom public opinion had seemed to select ns most capable of leading them, and that he himself intended to fight as an officer, forgetting for a while his position as a sovereign. SPLENDID ARTILLERY PRACTICE OP THE PRUSSIANS. The next morning, Thursday, Sept. 1, 1 returned, as soon as the gates of the town were opened, to my post of observa tion on the elevated ground where tho bat tery was still placed. Tho French po “ tions did not seem to me much altered, b ut the right was now on the other aide of Sedan. At 7 o’clock the cannonade began in earnest; some slight firing having taken place earlier. The Prussian batteries facing us appeared to me much more nu merous ; indeed it seemed to me there wore batteries everywhere. They roared from every point of the Prussian line which then stretched nearly parallel in front of the French. I could follow tho falling of their shells which exploded as they touched tho ground and fell with won derful pre.ision. I noticed also how quickly they changed and corrected their tire. As soon as a Frenoh corps took up a position it was instantly assailed by shells. The first would, perhaps, full a few feet short or beyond, but the second or third was sure to find its way to tho troops and do its aw'ul work among them. The Kr*oel» o1lOl!*S uu ilic wutiwry, euplcdotl generally before they reached tho grouud, and the smoke of the explosion formed innumerable little clouds at different heights, some so high that the shell eould do no harm, I should think, to the enemy. I noticed some inexplicable movements. A few squadrons of Prussian cavalry made as it they would charge a French force which was toward the left. Imme diately TWO REGIMENTS OP FRENCH CAVALRY CHARGED in turn upon the Prussian squadrons, which fell back and fled. But at the same moment a Prussian corps of infantry opened a murderous fire upon those two eager French eavalry regiments, and they came back sadly shattered from their rash pursuit. About 9 o’clock I could not help fancying that the Prussians were .extend ing farther to the left ; for, on asking whether certain new batteries were French I was told they were Prussian. The Prussian line was evidently curling around us. • I have learned since that the Crown Prince had crossed the Meuse during the night about five leagues from Sedan, and that this had not been known to McMahon. A large force of Bavarians must also have arrived after the commencement of the battle, for it was tho Bavarian troops who began pounding us from the left. At 10$ o’clock TBS ADVANCE OF TUB PRUSSIANS was perceptible on both wings at the same lime. Some French infantry which was close to the town on the east side gave way, as it seemed to me, rather quickly. afterward shells were coming from behind my left, and it became evident that the French position had been turned, and that a fresh German corps had taken a position in our rear. The reserves were now necessarily di- { reoted against these points. The battery near which 1 stood was already in action, and 1 thought it quite timo to beat a re treat The place was becoming as dan gerous as any in the field. Among the guns close to me, the Prussian shells be gan falling with their usual beautiful pre cision. So I got on the other side of the slope, and made my way toward the town. THE PRUSSIAN CIRCLE CONTRACTING. As the road to Booilloo, which crossed the field of battle, was wholly dosed to me now, I also perceived that I should be shut up in that circle which the Prussians had been drawing about the army and the town, and which was ultimately eompltted. I made my wav as fast as I could, by the safest paths. When I reached the suburb before the Porte de Balan, I found it in cumbsred with soldiers of all corn', has tening, as I was, into the town. It was a defeat, evidently, yet it was not eleven o'clock, and the battle was destined to con tinue at various points for some time longer, though continuing without any real hope of victory. THE FRENCH ROUTED. To one entering the town as I did, there was no longer any battlo to describe. It was first a retreat and too soon a rout. I thought myself lucky to get away from the field as I did; for an hour afterward the rout of those forces that had been nc»r by me was complete. Already soldiers were crushing against each other in the strug gle to get inside the town. liismounted cavalry were trying to make their way, some evon by the ramparts, leaping down from the counterscarp; others foroing their way in oy the postern gates. From a nook of the ramparts, where I rested a moment, I saw also Cuirassiers jumping horses and all—into the moat, the horses breakirg their legs and ribs. Men were scrambling ever each ether. There were officers of all ranks—Colonels, and even Generals, in uniforms which it was impossi ble to mistake, mixed in this shameful melee. Behind all came guns with their heavy carriages and powerful horses, forc ing their way into tbe throng, maiming and crushing the fugitives on foot. TERRIBLE SCENES IN SEDAN. To add to the confusion and horror, the Prussian batteries lad by this time ad vanced within range, and the Prussian shells began falling among tbe struggling masses of men. On the ramparts were tbe National Guards, manning tbe guns of the town, and re .lying with more or less effect to the nearest Prussian batteries. It was a scene horr bleenocgh to have suited the iancy of Gustave Core himself I could form but one idea of our unhanpy army: that it was at the bottom cf a seething cauldron. I Lurried back as best I could to my ho tel, following the narrow streets where the shells were least likely to reach the ground. Wherever there was a square or open place, I came upon the bodies of horses and men quite dead or still quivering, mown to pieces by bursting shells. Beach ing my hotel, I found the street in which it stood choked like the rest, with wagons, guns, horses and men. Most luckily at this moment the Prussian fire did not en filade this street, for a train of caia«one filled with powder blocked the whole way, itself unable to move backward or for i ward. There was every chance that these oaissoDs would explode, the town being then on fire in two places ; and I began to think Sedan was a place more uncomfort able than even the battle field over which a victorious enemy was swiftly advancing- THE EMPEROR UNDER FIRE. From friends whom J found at the hotel, I learned that the Emperor, .who had started early in the morning forthe field of of battle, had returned about the same time that I did, and passed through the streets with his staff. One of my friends was near him on the Place Turenne when a shell fell under the Emperor’s horse, and, bursting, killed the horse of a general who was behind him. He himself was untouched, and turned around and smiled ; though my friend thought he saw tears in his eyes, which he wiped away with his glove. Indeed, he had cause enough for tears on that fatal Ist of September. Meantime, shells began to fall in the direction of our street and hotel. Wo all stood under the vaulted stone entrance, as the safest shelter we could find. I trembled on account of tho caissons still standing in the street, and filling all the space from end to end. It was at this time when we waited watching painfully for the shell which would have sent us all together into another world, that Gen. De Wimpffen came past, making A VAIN EFFORT to rally and inspirit his flying troops. He shouted, “ Vive la Stance / En avant I” But there was no response. He cried out that Bazaine was taking the Prussians in the rear. News which had been current all the morning at intervals, eftming now from the mouth of Gen. De Wimpffen, seemed to be believed, and a few thousand men were rallied and followed him out of the town. People began to have hope, and for one brief moment we believed the day might yet be saved. Need I say that this intelligence was a patriotic falsehood of brave Gen. De Wimpffen ? Mad with anguish, and in direct opposition to the Emperor’s orders, he had resolved to rally what me hhc could and make a stand. He could not have known that he was bound in the grasp of at least 300,000 men. A DESPERATE SORTIE. The bugle and tho trumpet ring out on all sides. A few thousand men hearken to the sound. My friend Ilene De Gu.i oye of the Chasseurs D’Afrique, whom I have just met, after losing sight of him for ten or twelve years, got on horseback again and joined the General. The sortie took place thus: They went out at the Porte de Balan. The houses of the suburb arc al ready full of Prussians, who fire on tho French out of every window. The church, especially, is strongly garrisoned, and its heavy doors are closed- Tho General sent off De Guiroye to bring two pieces of can non. These soon arrived, and with them the door of thechuich was blown in, and 200 Prussians were captured and brought back with the French, who, in spite of all effor's, were themselves soon obliged to re tire into the town. It was the last inci dent of the battle —tbe last struggle. While this took place at the Porte de Balan, tbe Prussian shelling went on and the shells began to fall into the hotel. SHOCKING SCENES followed. A boy, the son of a tradesman around the corner of the street, came in crying and asking for a surgeon. Ilis father’s leg had been shot. off. A woman in front of ths house met with the same fate. The doctor who went to the trad s man found him dead ; and returning, at tempted to cairy the woman to an ambu lance. He had scarcely made a step when Bho was shot dead in his arms. Those of us who stand in the gateway and witness such scenes have got beyoud the feeling of personal fear. Any ono o ( ' uq I will venture to say would give bis life to spare France on this dreadful day. Yet we stand pale and shuddering at the sight of tho fate which befals the poor people of the town. 1 care not to dwell upon horrors, which, nevertheless, I shall never be able to for get. I can mention moje than one brave officer who did not fear to own that he shrank from the sight of what had become a mere massacre. Those who were safeiy out of the way as prisoners, whether offi cers or men, needed no pity. When, after a time, it became clear that there was no I sign of Baxaine, the hopes of the French again departed. A sullen sort of fight i still went on. The guns of the town an ! swered the Prussians. An aid-de-camp of the Emperor weDt by on foot, and I heard him ask the effioers near by to help him in putting an ecd to the fire. Suoh being the Emperor's wish, at length THE WHITE FLAG was hoisted on the citadel. The cannon ade ceased suddenly about 4s. Eager as we wero to know the cause, we ear.net leave the house, for the street is impassable, and we have to be content with learning the mere fact of the surrender. As night drew on, the crowd a little diminished, and ty some effort it was possible to make one’s way about the town. The spectacle it offered was more horrible thaa war. Head were lying every v here; civilians and soldiers mingled in the slaughter. In one * suburb I counted more than 50 bodies of peasants and bourgeois—a few women among them, and ono child. The ground was strewn with splinters of shells. Starv ing soldiers were CUTTING UP DEAD HORSES to cook and eat, for provisions had again failed ns as everything has failed since this campaign began. 1 was glad to get away from the s’ght of our disasters and lose their remembrance in a few hours of sleep. NAPOI.KON A PRISONER. The next day we were told that the Emperor had gone to the King's headquar ters to treat for a surrender. At 11 his household and carriages left the town and we knew that he was a prisoner and the Empire no more. About the same hour there was posted in the streets a proclama tion from Gen. De Wimpffen saying that notwithstanding prodigies of courage, the army having no more ammunition found itself unable" to respond to the summons of its chiefs and force its way to Montmedy. That being surrounded ho had made the best conditions he could: conditions such as would indict no humiliation on the ar- j my. These conditions prove to be the sur render of the whole’ army, not less than j 100.000 men, as prisoners of war, with all their arms, baggage, horses, standards and j guns. The officers who sign an engage ment not to serve against Prussia during the war may return to their homos, the remainder to be sent to'German towns in I Germany. Many officers refuse to sign, preferring to share the captivity of their men. BAD FAITH OF THE FRENCH. On Saturday the whole force laid down their arms. Not a few soldiers in their rage broke lather than give up their arms, and the streets were littered with frag ments of all kinds of weapons broken: swords, rifles, pistols, lancers’ helmets, cnirasses, even mitrailleuses covered the ground; and in one place where the Meuse runs through the town the heaps of such fragments choked the stream and rose above the surface. The mud of tho streets was black with gunpowder. The horses had been tied to the houses and gun-car- j riages, but nobody remembered to feed o water them, and in tbe frenzy of hunger I and thirst they broke loose and ran wild ' through the town. Whoever liked might ; have a horse—even officers’ horses which 1 were private property—for the trouble of catching than. EMPTYING THE MONEY OIEST. When the Prussians came into the town they wore very soreacd angry'at the sight j of all this destruction and waste. What | must have pleased them still less, was the t state in which they found the military j chest. A q soon as the surrender was re solved od, the French officers were fold to make out the best accounts they could, present them, and receive payment. Naturally, the statements thus brought in soon proved sufficient to empty the trea sury. I know of officers who demanded and received payment for horses that were not killed, and baggage which had not been lost. Demoralization showed it self in every way. Even the stanaards were burned or buried, an act of bad faith not to be paliiated even by tbe grief aud rage of a beaten army. GEN. DE FAILLY. Tfce’r rage is greater against no one j than Gen. De Faillv. He had a room in the hotel where I was staving. On Fri day, a great multitude of soldiers gathered before the house, -the doors of which were i closed, demanding Get. De Faidy with such shouts and menaces that the land lord thought it prudent to burry him out of a back window. The soldiers, could they have reached him. would have torn him to pieces. Since then, I have heard tbe report that he was shot by one of his own men ; but no such event had hap pened on Saturday, and could Dot well happen later. FRENCH ANNOYANCES AND PRUSSIAN COURTESY. It was a relief on Saturday when the Prussians came in and occupied the town, and restored order. lam sorry to have r.o acknowledge that all through the cam paign tho French have acted mush more like a conquerit g army in a hostile country than tbe Prussians. All the annoyance 1 have experienced personally came from my own countrymen ; from the peasants who, above all, isw a spy in every stranger. When 1 fell into the hands of the Pros sians I found them courtesy itself. Oa leaving Sedan and thence to the frontier, in passing through the Prussian posts, I was stopped often, I had but to say, '‘l am tbe correspondent of an American journal,” and I was at once sent kindly forward. On the back cf my French military pass the Prussian Staff had in dorsed a Prussian safe-conduct. Often I was not obliged even to show my papas, my word was taken; and onco out of Sedan I was speedily through. When I left Sedan on Sunday merning things were rapidly getting in order- The streets were cleared of dead horses and men. The indescribable filth of the town was swept into the river. The shops were opening again. Discipline had taken the place of disorder. I saw enough of Prus sian organization and energy to change, if tbe grievous defeat of a noble army had not already changed, tie opinion I havo so often expressed that ultimate victory for France was sure. WHY THE FRENCH WERE SO OFTEN SUR PRISED. I have followed MacMahon from the day when I found him reorganizing his army at Chalons to the fatal day at Sedan, when he the last organized force in France, save the remnant of that, which is shut up in Metz. Certainly, when I was at the camp of Chalons, and then at Ilheims, I had observed that the number ot stragglers was enormous, and I continually met soldiers who did not know where their regiments were. I had seen men and officers disabled by wounds which French soldiers of ether days would have despised: I bad remarked how un tidy and careless the men were allowed to be about their dress and equipments. These things, slight, but significant to a military eye, had caused me, no doubt, some misgivings as to the rapidity of the success we had a right to expect. 1 saw also how prone French officers were to avoid tl e iatigues of long marches and tlfe discomfort of bivouacs. I remember how often I havs traversed the French liftc3 at dead ot night and at early daxn, and never heard a challenge, never came across a French vedette, never have fallen in with a party of scouts. On tbe other hand, I have seen officers spend the time that ought to have been given to their men, in cases or in poor village inns. Often even officers of the staff seemed to neglect their duties for paltry amusements, showing themselves ignorant sometimes even of the name of the Department in which they were ; so that I have known a French General obliged to ask his way from peasants at the meeting of two roads. I struggled long against all this kind of evidence, but the end is cmly too clear. Painful it is to me, but I am bound to de clare my belief that any further effort France may make can only cause useless bloodshed ; and that a means of escape from her peril must now be sought other wise than by force of aims. IHE GBEAfiimATIO! DETAILS OF THE SURRENDER— INTERVIEW BETWEEN NAPO LEON AND BISMBCK - THE TEBMS AGBEED UPON. I BY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE. ] London, Tuesday, Sept. G, 1870. A special correspondent of the 'tribune brings from Sedan the following detailed account of the capitulation and interviews between the Emperor, King, and Count Bismarck. A DISTINGUISHED MORNING VISITOR. Headquarters. Houchery, near Re dan, September 3.—Yesterday morning quito early a carriage containing four French officers drove out from Sedan, and came into the German lines. The carriage was accompanied by three officers on horse back, but had no other escort, and vben it had arrived among the Germans one of the occupants put his head out, and asked them in their own language where was Count Bismarck ; he mu 4 see him at once. The Germans said that Douehery was the most likely spot in which to find the Count, though no one know exactly his where abouts.- '“Forward, then, to Douehery.” The carriago dashed away, a-nd many a curious glance was aftei it. That short drive was afterward known to he a great historic event. NAPOLEON AND IIISMARCk's INTERVIEW. They met at a small house outside the town, on the left bank of tho Meuse, in a house where, oddly enough, the inmates being from Luxembourg, spokeboth French and German. On his first arrival the Em peror went inside. But it was thought they could sit more comfortably iu the open air. It was a delightfully line fresh morning. So chairs were placed for them, and they sat talking for a couple of hours. The Emperor wore the undress uniform of a general, with but one decoration oil his breast, and with tho usual Tcepi (soldier’s cap) of the French service. Count Bis-, march was in his white cuirassier's undress uniform, with aflatcap and long boots. If yon picture them sitting outside of the house, with the staff officers present lying on the patch of grass not far off, and the tall poplar trees flanking th echausee as far ns it can he seen, you will realize this striking episode. NArOLEON DOES NOT SURRENDER FRANCE. Napoleon appeared in better health than last year, bnt anx : ous and careworn. Hfe asked to see King William, and said he placed himself at His Majesty’s disposi tion. As to polities, lie avoided alt show of dealing in any while a prisoner with the late of Franoe. He surrendered his army, but could not yield one jot political, y on behalf of the French people, or of the Government of the Empress Regent. BISMARCK WANTS COMPLETE SURRENDER Count Bismarck, iu his turn, placed be fore Napoleon tho fact that this surrender of Sedan must be complete—l had well nigh said must be unconditional, but that would be going too far. It must be a complete surrender, because the French were not in a position t > as better terms. The Emperor much desired to see King Wi iiatn before the articles of tion were Tinned. This, however, the King had thought it better both tor him self and bis illustrious prisoner to refuse. They could not so well arrange a hard bargain as could their ministers and gen erals. In everything personal the King was resolved to treat the Emperor with consideration ; but as to the questiqn of the terms to be granted that was another matter. NAPOLEON SEEKS A RETIRED CHATRAU. When Napoleon and Bismarck had chat ted for a little while, mostly of indiffer ent things, this lone-to be remembered interview bos : des the Meuse was brought to an end. The Gcunt wept to prepare his own quarters in Douehery for the Empe ror’s reception, bat it was afterward deci ded that a snag chateau near Frencis would be more convenient as Napoleon wished to he as little seen by people as possible. Thither he was then escorted by a detach ment of the F’rst Prussian cuirassiers, and there he remained while Gens, De Wimpf fen and Von Moltke discussed the terms of the surrender of Sedan. There was a hard bargain to drive, bat proportionate power of driving it. GERMAN PRECAUTIONS. Not an inch oi their past gains had been neglected by the Germans. Masses of in- : fantry were posted on every line of ap- 1 proach to the town. Guns were still point- : ted against the French and a numerous body of cavalry was ready to sweep down upon any stragglers who should perchance get through in the confusion of a sortie. The King had declared that he should reopen fire if the capitulation were not signed by noon of the 2d inst. It was al together a desperate case; a thorough checkmate of a fine but disheartened artuy. De Wimpffen was convinced of this when Von Moltkc pointed out to him how carefully he had prepared his plans. Sadly and reluctantly the French General agreed to sign as the only thing to be done. THE CONDITIONS. The whole army, including the Em peror, were to be considered prisoners of war. There was indeed a clause by which the officers were to be at liberty to return home od 'heir written r remise not to serve against Prussia or her allies during the present contest, hut they were to take their men safely into Germany and hand them over to Germany. Arms, horses, artillery and war material of all kinds were to be gjven up. The town of Sedan was to be thrown open to the Germans, and the French soldiers were to be taken out to the meadows on tho head of tbe M use, be tween Dcuahery and Sedan, and there en camred till their departure for Germany could be conveniently arranged. De M impffen spoke bitterly of having hurried back from Africa only to find such a task as this devolve upon him. It was indeed an ill-omened journey to join a force which he found outnumbered and defeated, one might almost say, before the battle begun, and to assist in an act of surrender that would be to his eternal re grat. THE KING VISITS THE EMPEROR. King William made a visit to the cap tive Emperor in the chateau of Frenois yesterday afternoon. Napoleon remained perfectly calm. In the beginning of the visit he received his guest of 1867 and his conqueror of to-day with grave politeness, spoke with him for a few moments in an outer room, and then withdrew with the King into another room, where no one fol lowed them. The Crown Prince stepped to the door and closed it, and the French and German officers presentremainedsoine little time waiting before Napoleon and the King returned. What they had said to each other may have concerned the status of the captive Emperor. Certain it is that Napoleon was much affected by the cour tesy of King William, and that he ex pressed to the Crown Prince in warm terms his sense of the generous manner in which he had been treated. THE HOME OF THE CAPTIVE. To day, September 3, the Etnperor has started for Aix La—Chapelle, on his way to his future residence in Germany. He is to be lodged during his detention in the palace of Wilhelmhohe, in Cassel; a palace where once his uncle. King Jerome, of Westphalia, lived, and which w’as then called Napoleon's Ilohe. The Emperor desired to pass as little as might be through French territory, and to travel very quiet ly. His personal baggage, his servants, and his handsomely appointed carriages have been allowed to accompany him, with, I believe, a few French officers ot his household. Gen. Boyer of the Prus sian army and Prince Svnar, late Prussian Secretary of Embassy in Paris, have been attached to him as aides-de camp. The muddy streets of Doucbery, with their crowds of soldiers sdu teamsters, of wagous and led horses, were cleared for a few mi utes this morning, between nine and half past nine o’clock, so that a train of carriages might pass at a trot, and take tho northern road around the great bend of the river. The people stared with idle wondering. “Who couiu it be?” “An other general, perhaps.” Alas! how many generals there are in the world, and how many hungry soldiers. These people would all join the Peace Society to morrow, if they gave effect to their feelings. “An other general—no 1 ’Tis he himself!'’ they cry, as they cafch sight of tho Im perial liveries and of tho man in that foremost csirriate. It is he himself; pale, anxiously looking, with his face firm set, but with no overwhelming depression upon it. He glances from the carriage windows, and bows in return to the stranger at the corner of the street who has raised his hat to the fallen Emperor. There are few who raise their hats, but they are horribly afraid of the German sold erin these parts and think themselves as brave as the old highlander beneath Monteuses scaffold if they took much notice of Napoleon. Then, too, I judge by their muttered remarks that the greater part of them are decided ly anti Imperialists now, whatever they may have been before the war. The risoners are even stronger in their lan guage- They have been ruined by imbe ciles ; they have beep betrayed; their generals ought to be shot. THE EMPEROR SAVED BY THE PRUSSIANS FROM THE FRENCH. The Emperor found ' is position so criti cal in Sedan after the aimisticc became known that he was glad to come over and surrender himself. He could control the storm while the men were to fight and and e for him, but when it came to all being prisoners together, (hey were somewhat dangerous in their mood. I hear that this same angry, despairing astonishment at what has happened makes it hard work to manage the 80,000 prisoners or more wh® have been taken first and last about Sedan there was actual danger of bloodshed this morning when the prisoners began to move out of the town. Happily the officers iq command ihowed admirable tact and firm ness. The Frenoh kept their old authority by not straining the cord too tight, the Germans by not showing themselves too much on the scene. Sedan is presenting ti e wildest scene of confusion which you can imagine. Nar row streets deep in mud, for we have had heavy rain to day ; the soldiers half-drur k with the stores of liquors ; the houses half- Imrned, ami dead bodies lying everywhere. Thcie are thousands of wounded men to be cared for. Marshal McMahon was severe ly injured at the beginning of the battle, but hi s )if e i g n0 (; i D dancer. The loss among the French in superior officers has been something dreadful. You ask what is to be our next move? I an swer, to Baris; so say the men, so says tlie voice of public rumor and public opinion in the German armies. To Paris unless tho French will yield up Strasbourg and Metz, and pay war expenses. Count Bismarck would bo content with less, hut tlie German people insist on hard terms, and the German people must he obeyed. “To Paris,” then, is the cry, and with their accustomed energy, the muddy, tr.i vel-staiued legions of King IViiliatn are off, and away on the road to the French capital. AN EXPLANATION FROM GEN. DE WIMPFFEN. Paris, Tuesday, Sept C, 1870. Gen. De Whnpffen, who surrendered Sedan, publishes a long explanation in the Paris papers regarding its position at tlie time of the surrender. In it he states that lie had recently ar rived from Algiers, and was immediately ordered to a command under McMahon at Sedan. , On his arrival there lie found McMahon suffering from severe wounds in his liip and back, resulting from the explosion of a shell, fragments of which had struck him, incapacitating him from tlie active directions of the movements of his army. Gen. Wimpffen was then compelled to as sume the command of an army which was already beaten. Though ignorant of the position, still he refused to sign articles of capitulation. The Prussians produced a map which showed the position of the German troops and batteries, and con vinced him that the destruction of the French army was inevitable. Then, only, was the surrender concluded. In conclu sion Gen. de Wimpffen very feelingly de clares.- “And now my name will go down to history linked with the humiliating capitulation for all time.” Robberies on the Plains. HOW IT FEELS TO BE CALLED UPON TO STAND AND DELIVER. j A passenger by Wells, Fatgo k Co.’s j stage coach across the pi tins, in wiring ! to the Helena Herald , says : Reaching Pleasant Valley about 9 p. m , Thursday, I saw indications of some anxiety oa the part of the driver ami guard, both ot whom were armed with shotguns aod revolvers. We massed the first station south of Pleasant Valley safe ly. But it was between this and the next that we expected the lun. Lieut. Ham ilton, of Fort Ellis, was with me, and the three Chinamen. I only had one weaoen of defense. We were all now watchful, and as the coach ascended from the bed of Dry Creek, this is what caught cur ears : Click ! click! click! “Halt I hall” and like an apparition, the road agents sprang from the rocks a few feet from the coach. One drew his Ilenry rifle on the leaders the next on the driver, and the third j>aid his compliments to the Lieutenant _ and myself by placing the muszle of his needle-gun in rather ' uncomfortable proximity to our ears 1 and as the driver pithily remarked, “the mnzz’es of them r.fles appeared as large as a rjne-ineh stove pipe.” I instantly sened uty “navy,” but a touch of caution from Hamilton advised patience. Not ; knowing what the issne of the affair might be, I concealed my money in the cushion of my seat, by cutting a hole m the eather; my companion had previously placed his in the band of his The Chiaamen had py this time awoke and began their gibberish. I silenced them, and they noted the progress of affairs out’- side. The driver put on the brake the moment they challenged him. He asked what they wanted? “The treasure boxes,” said they. “All right,” said the driver, “here they are,” and threw out the light one (from j Virginia city, I believe). “You have another of these fish ?” said the leader. “Yes,” was the reply. “Throw it out,” was the command. This was done, and stepping aside he ! picked up an ax and began chopping the light one open. It took him full fifteen minutea, and hard work at that. He i emptied its content*. “There’s nothing in that box,” said he, I evidently much euraged. ' He next attacked the Helena box, which contained about six thousand dollars, I believe. He remarked to the driver daring the progress of opening the boxes, that he was sorry to detain ns so long, but it could not be helped; and these things would occur in the best regulated families. “Are there any passengers aboard?” be asked, when he got through with the boxes. “Yes,” said the driver, “three China men and two white men.” “Get cot John," in a voice that oould not be mistaken. We told the boys to get out. They were very unwilling to go bat they finally turned cut. The leader held h;s rifle to their heads and demand ed their money. With many pro’testa tions of poverte they said they had none. One said, “Two dollars bap a!!e, no more.” They would not be satisfied, but with fearful imprecations they told them that they would shoot them where they stood if they did not disgorge. One by one lie stripped off their tunies and boots and took what they had. The third and last, who had tbe largest amount of money ($3,700) strang around his neck or in a belt, he handled very roughly. He took his long knife (about twelve inches) and ripped shirt, vest and coat from top to bottom, and the gold fe 1 out with a heavy thud to the ground. Having fin ished, they oidered them into the coach, and lold the driver to “go on,” much to our relief, indeed, for I fully expected that we would be next. We cannont ex plain their partiality in our favor, and think that they were afraid to attempt to force us out. I could have easily killed two of them, but it would have been at the expense of the life of one of tbe men on the box, an issue which I did not like to force. The hind curtain being down, none of them could observe nur movements —hence, I bad the “drop” on any one of them, ex cept the man wko covered the driver, who was a little too far. Thus ended my ex perience with the road agents of Montana, of whom I have heard and read so much. J. M.
