NAPOLEON'S MANIFESTO. _ His Views on the Situation-He Desires the Defeat of the Prussians, even at the Sacrifice of HU Dynasty-Germany has More Interest In an Alliance with France thai, in Her Ruin-Why a Magnant monti Policy Should be Pursued. La Situation, an Imperialist organ in London, published on Tuesday last the following under the heading, uThe Ueas of the Emperor." Im? mediately after the failure of negotiations with Favre, Bismarck sent to Wilhelmshohe an ex? act report of the intewiew. The Emperor, upon receiving Mils, shut himself up in his cablnent. The same evening Castelnau set out for the Prussian headquarters with the fol? lowing note, wholly In the Emperor's hand? writing: WILHELMSHOHE, September 26. In sending rae news every day of thc event?? which have happened since the hour when Providence compelled me to surrender ray sword, the Kim: has to ask the opinion of his prisoner' ou the trials which the Prussian annies impose upon France in what he believes to be the Interest of Germany. The Count's (Bismarck's) communications co mi rm me lu this opinion. But is the time Indeed come for me to re? spond to this twofold expectation by the ex? pression ot my thoughts ? Until the 4th o? September the reserve, to which I have adher? ed since Sedan, was due to my firm resolution to leave the Empress at full liberty to act in accordance with the purposes of the country. Since the 4th ol September 1 could not but wish, that France, even at the sacrifice of ray dynasty, should succeed in driving the Invader beyond ber natural frontier. [There ls proba? bly an omission here. "They," in the next sentence, refers to the Provisional Govern? ment.-En.] In approaching the Count as they did, in a way the-result ol' which was easy- lo foresee, they misrepresented the real character o? the war, thinking thus to be rid ot responsibility for a general impulse to the influence of which my government had felt bound to submit. The result was to destroy the effect ol' the motives which they have to refuse the conditions of? fered; it was, above all. to paralyze the na? tional defence at the very moment when it was about to assume proportions worthy of France. -Tim Omi? apiitnf!!) to bennaware that the armistice refused was necessary lo the recon? struction of a regular gov ernment, and he ?3 astonished tbat no one ot the powers legally existing should have given its opinion upoii what lie considers "a proof of tile King's mod? eration." No one could blame a Frenchman for having repaired au Imprudent step by re? fusing to accept proposals little In accordance with our glorious past. A duel like this which is being fought between France and Germany can only be brought toan eud by the complete ruin of one of the two adversaries, or by their close and honorable reconciliation. First ol all, then, the Count ought to ask himself whether Germany has more interest in the ruin than in the alllauce ot France. If admitting the former hypothesis, Germany does not believe that France is able to lind safety in despair-even thomrh Europe should consent to remain an Indiff?rent spectator of an invasiou that has no fixed limit. My interview with the King authorizes me to think that he much prefers an alliance with France to her ruin; tbat he is not without anx? iety as to the results ol'a struggle carried to ex? tremities, and that he estimates at their true worth the rights which a perfect knowledge ol' tlie sentiments manifested during the war by Hie different nations ot Europe would give lo the two countries once closely uuiied. It' such were in reality the Kind's opinion, lt would only remain tb point out the means ot giving it effect. But does it indeed belong to the con? quered so to define the obligations ortho con? queror t :iat bis generosiiy may not seem mure . burdensome than his demands ? I can only remind the Count that a mag? nanimous policy never appeals in vaiu to thc heart ol'the French people, while nothing is ever obtained by an effort to touch the chords of egotism or ol'lear, which will remain unex? cited whatever reverses Providence ?nay in? flict upon us. France, if a generous liue of conduct should incline her toward a close and honorable alli? ance with Germany, would bethe first to agree that lhere was no longer a reason lor the ex? istence of a line of delence commanded by for? tresses between the two empires. As for Hie sacrifices France would have lo endure beside, she would not. agree lo make them were she not permitted to understand the immense ad? vantages which accrue to the two nations from a peace of which their own will would hence? forth be sole arbiter. In this view, the Powers, obliged to hold themselves completely aloof so long as France shall preserve a hope of success, would have a serious reason for intervening. The frank and clear statement of the truth which I always made, established betweeu France and myself a current ol sympathy which nothing will ever be able to destroy. Were I to ailina that our honor has no stain to fear from a reconciliation based on the dis? armament of fortresses then become useless, and on the principle of a war indemnity to be settled by experts, I believe peace would be possible. These conditions may prevent France from having recourse to extremities which a caprice or chance might render lalal to the social order of Europe. Taught by experience a sound appreciation of the divisions by which she is lorn, and de? livered from the scourge ol' war, France would be swiff to see aud admit that her misfortunes are clue to her want ol' political unity, and that she must henceforth seek her prosperity in a strict regard to tue inviolability of her institu? tions. ' These considerations will dally have les? weight, especially it" the King hesitates to lake them into account before attacking Paris. The terrible shock which Providence has per? mitted between Germany ?ind France may have struck out a spark which progress will find useful to the moral and material safely ol' Europe. But il on both sides they persist in looking to force as the only solution, there will surely spring out ol' thia shock a formida? ble unknown {un inconnaredoitbtaOU) as much to Hie misfortune of Germany us there has been ol' misfortune 10 France.

The Crown Prince ol Prussia has published the following address to the Germans: Through ^reat victories ot the annies the hope ol'a glorious peace has been won fur the German people. On the battle Held ol' France the nation has become conscious ol' its ;rreaf- i nc^s and union, and this gain, sanctified by I he blood of inany thousands of our warriors, we trust will keep its binding power lor all fu? ture time. But tu the enthusiastic outbursts and emotions of these weeks have come also I Oel? ings of deep sorrow. Many of the liower of our youth, many of the leaders of our anni-, have fallen victims of the victory, and greater still is tile number ol' I hose who, from wounds and excessive endurance and exertions, will be unable in future to i?nin their livelihood by their own efforts. They above nil. ami those whom the dead have left behind them, aud Ihe living viel ?ms or the war, have a claim l o the gra? titude ol' the nation. Whoever has shared the enthusiasm ot Cds contest; whoever, Irom the rising up of our whole people In '.heir might, hopes for a new happy era ol peuce, und whoever in our victories and the defeat ol' ou.-foes worships a judgment of God on high, let him uow prove his fidelity to Hie warriors of our people's army and their families. Help irita the Slate alone, however tully it mav be given, will not snllice to support the l?rue number ol' the invalids and their families Thar, help ouly affords what ls absolutely necessary and unavoidably confined lo general normal rules, and cannot attend to the need and wants of the individual. Great efforts of voluntary help will be required this time, for huge as the success have been the losses of the war. lu Hie same way in which this war has created an uniform aud united German army, in which sons ol all the German lauds fought in brotherly emulation of bravery, the care for the iuvalidsaud helpless whom this war leaves behind must become the common business of Germany, the north and the south of our fatherland taking a like share la lt. Former experience has taught that it does no; suffice with generous hearts to oller dona? tions of money. Na)', not less Impor? tant and more difficult are the proper distribution thereof, the kind considera? tion of personal circumstances, jud, most important of all, the precaution, that the assistance rendered shall not weaken instead of stremithen the power to earn which may still exist, and that lt really prove beneficial for the life ol those assisted. Toe "Victoria National Invalid Fund," which was founded in 1868 throughout the largest part of Germany, having answered this purpose, and having been found effective In Its organization, I here? by authorize the executive manager ol' that lund to take In hand the organization and management of an "Invalid Fufad of Ger? many," and to call for contributions and the establishment of branches thereof. ? His Majes? ty, the King, commander-in-chief of the Ger? man army, as in the years 1864 and 1866, has given me his consent to this patriotic enter? prise. This time lt has been my good fortune to lead an army into the field, in which the Bavarian, the Wurtemberger aud the Badener have fought side by side with the Prussian, and I may address myself to the hearts of all Germans. May this work of love be a com? mon labor between us for our Fatherland, and may it be thc introduction to majiy united and blessed works ot peace ! FniEDUICII WlLHBLM, Crown Prince ol Prussia. Headquarters, Rheims, September 0, 1870. The Path of the War-Appeal to the N World. The London News' correspondent forwards the following translation of an appeal to all the world, which, Issuing first from the arron? dissement of Brley, is now circulating among the authorities of the neighboring arrondisse? ments, and which ls to be forwarded to Eng? land, America and Germany for publication as soon as the necessary signatures are ap? pended: ?Advance Copy of an Appeal to bapubllshed.J To all neutral nations, and to tpose among belligerent nations who have not suffered hostile invasion In the war of J$70: We, the people ol those portions of France which are occupied by the Gordian armies, more especially of the departments Moselle, Meuse, Meurthe and Ardennes, call upon von for aid. Not for aid to enable'tislo destroy Hie. but for aid to maintain human lire, now and ufter the .advent of the peace which all the world desires. Most genere us sympathy for the sick and wounded has been manifested by those whom we now address; munificent hands have poured healing balms upon the direct victims of war's dreadful engines; brave heans have interposed to slay the sweep ot the Des? troying Angers scythe; while yet other mise? ries, a little farther from view, but wider far lu their threatened extent, have been overlook? ed. Tlie people of France depend for their subsistence on the grains which they raise and the callie which they breed. In the sections of country that have been traversed by the German armies nothing remains of the provisions that had been accumulated in time ol peace. Our houses, stables and burns are burned or riddled with cannon shots. The fields or meadows ure trampled down by the tread of embattled hosts. Neither cereals nor grass have been harvested this autumn. All our beasts of bur? den, all our beeves, sheep and swine, have been taken from us. Our laborers ore either pressed into the French army as soldiers, or into the German army as teamsters. There remains not even seed corn. We arc destitute of strength to prepare the trampled ground for peed for next years harvest; destitute of ma I terial to sow; destitute, in many places, of ground to HOW upon; as miles upon miles ot territory are made Inviolable by the plough, bi" reason of t li? Hacreil and terrible seed of human corpses with which they have been sown. Starvation stares us in the face now; famine and pestilence are the legacies which war will surely leave to ns for the coming win? ter aud spring; the cry of children begging the lather lor bread, which he laasaot, is already upon the aJriJtthUfrttM taaj?-6fnousoless wid? ows and orphans, falling upon the open field where these unfortunates camp, prevent the blood-spots irom drying. You, our British brethren, know the com? fort aud security of a laud where "every man's house is bis castle;" you have, for centuries, not felt the ravages of Invasion; fancy the de? struction of all your means of subsistence, aud then reluse, If you can, to help-and help quickly-your neighbors who are perishing. You, our American brethren, must know the desolation lu which we live; yet you have been quickly restored; your country ls uutu rally rich, ours ls naturally poor; our resonrce| hear no comparison willi yours; the sufferings here will be ineffably greater than it was wita you. You, our brethren of the entire hu mau family-not oven excepting those of victori? ous Germany, who surely, we believe, do not wish our annihilation-we implore you, come lo the rescue. [Here the original is signed, first by "Rollin, Maire of Briey," and then those of the civil and ecclesiastical authorities of many French J villages and towns, situate between Meta, Nancy and Sedan.] Italy's Term? Offered the Pope. A Florence correspondent of the London News says that the following proposals have been made to the Pope by Count l'onza di San Martino on behalf of tho Italian Government: 1st.

The said government, obliges itself to endow tho Holy Seo with a fixed and tan iii ble revenue for a sum to be determined by common aer?eme n I. lULh.

Courtesies and Champagne on the Way-.V Conspiracy at Louisville Baf? fled-Sights in the Queen City-The Exposition and thc Big Banquet, dec., dec. [PROM OCR OWN CORRESPONDENT.] CINCINNATI, October 2. Here we are la the Queen City of the West, recovering a little, on this quiet Sunday m orn lng, from the continued excitement of our Journey and subsequent reception, wondering whether it has not been all a pleasant dream, and only aroused to its reality by the arrange? ments for our departure to-morrow posted upon the "excursionists'bulletin." Since Mon? day, when we left our old city, we have been living in one whirl of excitement and pleasing transition from one pleasure to another, and'| we have seen and learnt, so much of our coun? try that you must start from Atlanta with us, and, travelling over our route, Judge for your? self what a delightful trip we have had. We arrived at and passed through the "Chicago of the South" Tuesday night, about 6 o'clock. "Dark," (you will say,) "so there was not much to be seen." But Just keep \our eyes open and look out from the car win? dow. We see the enormous rolling mills, with dozens of tall chimneys vom? iting out flames; we hear the Unceasing groans and crashing of vast machinery at work. We see huge machine shops all lighted up, and men working away like demons, ap? parently in the midst ol flumes and hissing furnaces. Wo look to the right, as we pass, and dimly make out the grand hotel in process of erection, and nearly completed, covering a square with Its magnllicent front. We are told of eighteen hundred houses rising like magic under the hands of skilful workmen, and we no longer wonder that land ls selling for four hundred dollars per acre, seven miles from the city. At this point, we took the special excursion train of magnificent cars, lo which was attached a car, known only, 1 believe, in the annals of excursions, called a refreshment car. We have met other cars which may bo more splendid, and better fur? nished for sleeping and travelling, but this one appealed to our feeling"? iu a manner no Irresistible and so congenial to our tastes, that many an eye in luture will brighten at tho mention of "refreshment car." As we Journeyed, the delegations from places west of Atlanta joined us at their near? est depots, and as we grew In numbers we seemed to grow in spirits, each addition to our number calling for new toasts and new bumpers. We wondered more and more at the marvellous foresight of those who had fur? nished that wonderful car. Each man seemed to have been specially consulted as to his par? ticular taste; and amid the exhilarating speeches of responding delegates, and- the continued "cloop" of champagne corks, we made our entrance Into and passed through Chattanooga Just before daylight. Of this place we did not seo much; but what Southerner is there whose mind ls not Ulled with the memories of the past at the bare men? tion of the name ! As thu car sunk into si? lence we were startled tit each station by the calling out or some fearful field of battle, car? rying our thoughts back to those dreadful daya when the best blood of the South was spilt upon these smiling plains. But the-e things are of the past, so we slop our train and walk in to see the Rutherford County Fair. Welcomed by all, we spent a pleasant hour looking around, and taking the train for Nashville, we meet delegations from that city, wilh another of those mysterious re? freshment cars, above described, and arrived at Nashville near 3 o'clock P. M Speeches were made, bando shaken, and an honest cor? dial welcome extended to us. We then marched up lo the Maxwell House, (the best hotel wo have met in our travels,) where there was served up for our reception one of the handsomest of dinners by the citizens; a short time was given us for a look at the State House, and then we called upon Andrew John? son, president, who delivered a lengthy speech, In which he seemed to be very anxious about the Constitution of the United States, and In? different ubout all things else. Leaving this city at 9 o'clock P. M., we ar? rived at Louisville next day near midday, where wc were received by the citizens en masHi, a delegation of whom, (I forgot to say,) accompanied by another of those mysterious cars of which I have spoken, had taken US in charge at Nashville. As at Nashville, our wel? come was most cordial, their ouly regret be? ing that we could not stop among them. ?7e were escorted all In carriages through the streets to the depot of the Louisville and Cin? cinnati Short Linc, and there partook o? a handsome collation. The amazing conviviality, and the not-lo-be-refused inviiutious lo drink champagne that the Loulsvillians exhibited on this occisi?n, astonished us a good deal, and not until afterwards did we loam of the exist? ence of a horrible conspiracy against the Green Line excursionists, viz: to get Hiern all tight and keep them In Louisville. This was occasioned by the rivalry, between the latter city and Cincinnati. But the G. L. E.'s were not lo be waylaid, even in this dainty style; and with stern determination, turning their backs upou these allurements, seated thein gelvcB In the Cincinnati trula, fei a short lim e we had left Louisville and Its temptations lar behind. We were now In charge of our Clncln nail friends, and of course there was ano llier of those refreshment cars hitched on. As we rushed swiftly on to our destination, we be? came speedily convinced that we hadsLruck a grapi'-growing counlry. Sparkling Cataw ba was in the ascendant, and as we drank we fell that we were iu a land that was blessed indeed. Somehow, before we knew it, we were at Covington, and seating ourselves in the carriages awaiting us, drove through Covington aud across the Suspension Bridge to the different hotels allotted us in Cincin nati. I have tried to give you some Idea of the welcome extended to usai the different places I on our route, but as this city was the goal of j our excursion, I will only say that its welcome surpassed all our expectations. We were privileged men, exempt from all the minor taxations of city life, and doing nothing bu t enjoying the pleasures provided for us. Our delegation put up af. the Burnet House, and all places of amusement, business and commerce, were thrown open to us without charge. Street cars, theatres, telegraphs and all. await? ed our free pleasure, and down to the minutest details, all our wanls and desires were antici? pated. It seemed as if we owned the whole of Cincinnati, and could do with it as we pleased. As soon as we had rested sufficiently from the fatigues of our trip we commenced a sys? tematic sight-seeing, which has kept us em? ployed up to the present time. Among the first places we visited, of course, was the In? dustrial Exposition. This huge building was erected solely for the occasion, and is a grand affair. The main body of the building ls about 250 feet by 200 feet, with wings measuring 150 feet square, extending from each side. In this space they have contrived to exhibit every ar? ticle that human ingenuity, in this age ol pro? gress and patents, has been able to invent. From Maine to Omaha every State ot the North and West has sent Itsr jprese?tive, and we pass from the nasal whine of Massachusetts cry? ing forth Hie advantages of patent clothes washers and wringers to the hardy Westerner with ui3 short method of curing hides. Noth? ing is wanting. We locked and unlocked, with a Lilliputian key, a Herring's patent sale of wonderful beauty and mechanism, shooting a dozen enormous bolts from ali four sides of -the door. We examined the huge steam plough, bigger than a locomotive, going backward and lorward, and tearing up imaginary acres of land. We played ?he piano that took the prize at the World's Exposition and costs live thousand dollars. We looked at wonderfid machinery, all running, and doing wonderful things that we did not see the use of, and we came out at last, our minds filled with wonder and our pockets with cards and cir? culars. Having "done" the Exposition, we went, all riding in numberless carriages, to the suburbs, to visit the palatial residences of some of our wealthy entertainers. At tho home of the Hon. G. H. Pendleton we spent some time, ad? miring his magnificent buildings and wonder? fully laid-out grounds, Improved, If possible, by being seen through inverted glasses of sparkling Catawba, grown upon the very hills we were surveying. What with wealth and nature, the outskirts of Cincinnati are among thc most beautiful in the world. So said we all when we came driving home, delighted with our visit, and to prepare for the magnifi? cent banquet that evening at Pike's Opera House. That splendid hall was arrayed in the most beautiful and tasteful style. Upon the stage stood a table for the speakers and officers of the delegations and their hosts, and down the whole length of thc hall ran long tables with wonderful ornaments ot confectionery,"glasses, Ac. As the guests came crowding In aud seated themselves, the sigiit was gorgeous in the extreme. The banquet was opened by a prayer, and the battle that followed would re? quire the pen of a Napier to describe. For an hour lt raged with terrific violence, the sharp clash of steel keeping up an Anvil Chorus to the exhilarating popping of champagne corks. Gradually the din waxed faint, and at last the voice of the speakers became audible. A programme of the speeches was furnished all, and the ora? tors being well prepared, delivered themselves in their happiest styles, Inspired by their con? vivial feelings and the smiles of tne native beauty of Cincinnati Beated In the gallery. The excitement reached its height, however, as Mr. Pendleton rose to speak, and the enthu? siastic cheering1 told how highly appreciated was the glowing welcome he extended to the excursionists. At ?elate hour we left, and wnding our way to our apartments at the Ournet House, threat? ened the waiter with dire penalties should our Congress water be not forthcoming at an early hour next morning. Next morning, being in rather a contempla? tive mood, we wont to see tho Suspension Bridge over the Ohio, and standing upon the middle of the suspension, took a view. Away down, moro than a hundred feet below, tho Ohio rolled peacefully along, dotted with boats and bearing upon its bosom those magnificent floating palaces that wc can only read about in South Carolina On th<j northern bank stood the "Queen City of tho WeBt," rising from the willer's edge and stretching away baok up a gently sloping declivity to the hills upon hor outakirta, a vast canopy of smoko overhanding her numbcrloss manufactories and machine shops. We saw huge blocks of build? ings rising lo the sixth aud seventh etory, and last wo could hardly sufficiently admire the bridge itself, hanging 1200 feot from pier to pier over the groat river, with slrcot cars running across it and everybody taking it as a ia ?.tier of course. 1 havo not timo now to tell you how we bavo set Cincinnati and Louisville by tho eara over our party and ot the jolly quarrel over us that is going on; nor can 1 toll you of tho Duclioye races wo wcro taken to seo by a special train ; what splendid heats wc witnessed, aud how the horse that everybody bet fivo to ono oa got badly beaten. These things I must defor for auolhor letter. W. J. W. II AN .1 GL'JCS OF FLECTIONS.
