BERLIN, June 15. Berlin presents an unparalleled appearance of festivity. The city iscrowded witt people tr om ali parts of Germany and other countries of Europe, and quite a- number of Americans are also nore. Preparations for the great event of to-morrow, the triumphal entry o? the German army into the capital of the Em? pire, are about completed. Arches are erect? ed ia many streets and adorned with laurel, evergreens and flowers, and contain mottoes appropriate to the occasion. "Unter der ?in? dia" 1B absolutely covered with decorations and banners, and the Boyal Palace and other, public buildings presenta magnificent display. The weather to-day is splendid, and .signs are favorable for to-morrow. VERSAILLES, June 16. General Trochu.contiaued before the Assem? bly to-day the remarks commenced on Tues? day, in vindication of bis defence, of Paris. He gave a minute account of the sorties duri pg the German siege of Paris, and ol the reasons for making them. He attributed their defeat to the fact that the Germans used their artil? lery only. The French, he believed, would have beaten the German infantry if they could have engaged them. His main plan had been lor a grand sortie toward Rouen, but after ihe victory of Colmler3 public opinion demanded a Junction of the garrison of Paris with the army of the Loire, which was sheer madness. One ol the greatest obstacles to the conduct of the defence was the disorderly element in Paris, which was instigated to rebel by Bis marck.and to this end was furnished with arms from the enemy outside ol the city. He stig? matized the commencement of the bombard? ment by the Germans, without lornwl notice, as an unparalleled viclatiou of the rules of civ? ilized warlare. He said the individuals arrest? ed as provision agents, during his conduct of the military affairs of the capital had reap? peared as leaders of the insurrection, and in? stanced the case of Dombrowski. The insur? rection, said the general, was merely a con? tinuation ot war with Prussia. He coucltJded by condemning !n vigorous term?, Prince Bismarck, and mild allusions to the Commune. A motion was introduced In the Assembly 1^ the taxation of passports of persons en? tering France, as were also motions propos? ing that the present Assembly sit for two years, and that it enact organic laws for the control ot the finances of the country. The government remains at Versailles until October. General Donal's corps has gone to Lyons io disarm the national guards in the Talley of the Rhone, from Lyons to Marseilles. Twen? ty thousand troops will be sent to Algeria. LOXDOV, June 16. The Countess of Paris last night gave b'.ni: to a daughter. Napoleon and Eugenie hara made a visit to the Prince of Wales. The Times states that the French loan will amount i to only two milliards of francs. Specials from, Paris report that the Btate of 6iege ceases to- ' day, Friday. The reports o: renewed agita? tion in the Belleville and VUlette quarters ure unfounded. The German soldiers visiting Paris are occasionally Insulted In the street, and have been refused seats at tables at the restaurants. It ls said that upon the entry of Victor Emanuel into Some, the Pope will go to Cor? sica. PARIS, June IC. A proclamation bas been issned by the In? ternational Society which declares: "We are disarmed but not conquered, and are still one hundred thousand strong. Favre and Troclm were authors of our misfortunes, aided by capital and the priesthood. We accept the re? sponsibility of the conflagration. Wo must hare no interior deputies, no -divisions atJJie polls. The reaction toolaway our arms%but not our votes. "Viva la Social R?publique ! Viva la Commune !" Francis Paul Meurice, dramatist and novel? ist, arrested as a Communist, hos been re? leased. The French Acaderry resumed its sittings today. GERMANY'S TRIUMPH. Kn try of the Troops Into Berlin-Pro? gramme of tne Ceremonies. The Berlin correspondent of the London Times, of the 25th, says : The programme of the reception by the city is now deflultely settled A route has been chosen from the circumference of Berlin to the centre, which admits 'ol an enormous number of spectators Anding convenient places, either in wludows or on seats in ihe open street. The troops will assemble on the extensive field for military exercises between the Kreuzberg and the-village of Tempelhoff. They will euler the southern suburbs between the two hnge breweries situated on the summit of the Kreuzberg. The street, which leads from there to the ancleut Hiilllsche Gat?, 19 about lorty yards broad and a mlle in lengtL1. Being lined with very high and stately houses, almost all provided wUh balconies on every story, running la a gentle curve, even the first part ol the route will offer no contemptible opportunities lor sight-seers. The name of this thoroughfare is Belle Alliance street, after the meeting-place of Wellington and Blucher on the evening of the battle of Waterloo. It opens tulAhe north into a cluster of large squires near the Halllsche Gate. Here the first circu? lar hall of victory, adorned with statues emble? matic of the war, will receive the conquerors. The series ol stationary bands of music is to begin here, and two rows ol pasteboard statues and architectural trophies will line the whole way; The further progress of the march will not be by the ordinary avenue, Frederick street, which, beginning at thc Hallische Gate, runs in a perlectly straight Hoe, two miles and a hall loug, through the whole West End of Berlin. It bas been preferred to let the troops pass bv Kcenigsgratz street to tne Brandenburg Gate, the triumphal arch ot Ber? lin, which is a magnified copy ol the TiopylaM. Thus two miles more of a sufficiently broad Ihoroughlure-the breadth of this compara? tively new street is more thun thirty yunis are gained. A second and larger "hall ol vic? tor)" is t-? be constructed in Paris Square, just inside the Brandenburg Gate, where the recep? tion by the Emperor and thc great bodies of the Sute 4s lo take place. Frftin here begins the march through Unter den Liuden, thc leal "Via Triumphalism" or "Via Sacra" of Berlin, sixty varis broad, one mile and a half in lengih. AS in 18CC, the avenue will be lined with the cannon taken, if the enor? mous number-uearly 2000, against 200 in 18o?-rea;iv can be piaced. Triumphal arches erected by tlie guilds and trades-will follow in rapid succession. More than one hundred large flugs along the road will bear tile official dispatches from the seat of war in their chro? nological succeesiou. Tho spectacle in preua ratiou becomes grander .is we i-roceed. The four rows ol iroes .vhich adorn Unter der Lin? den break off where the equestrian s.atue ol Frederick Ii rises in th? middle to a height ol' lilly feet. Thence to the east Hie broad pavo m<int of "Ibe street is quite free Irom au j im pediments to the view, and the great public buildings, which- follow each other in an un? broken succession on both sides, greatly fa? cilitate showy disp?ajs. Here the pacific branches ot' the great army of the German na t'on, the medical service, the ambulances, the postal service, the service of railways and telegraphs, &c, are to be represented. It will be a'kind of open air exhibition on the larg? est scale, with tribunes containing accommoda? tions for the ladles'associations, the ladies of the central committee surrounding the Em? press on Hie large balcony of the Emperor's house. Having thus Anally passed the Acade? my of Arw, the University and the Arsenal on the left, the Emperor's house, the Great Operu and the Palace of the Crown Prince on the right, the military cortege will cross the broad Schlossbriicke, that fine structure of Scnln kles, with Its marble groups, and will Issue on the Lustgarten, a square which will hold about one huudred thousand people, and sur? rounded by the old State Palace, the Cathe? dral and the old Museum. Here it will be re? ceived bv a colossal painted pasteboard statue ol'Germania, eighty feet high, after the well known lithograph,-showing uer keeping watch on the Lorelei Rock on the Rhine. But this time she will have thrown down shield and sword, and instead will lead, right and left, two children that had been lost-Alsace and Lorraine-carryins images of Goethe, and Schiller as dolls to" play with.

[Correspondence or the London Time?.] A prisoner at La Roquette, M. Evrard, ser eeant-major of the leer h Battalion of National Guards, gives the following' particulars : On Wednesday, May 24, at 7.30 in the evening, the director ot" the prison, one Lafrancals, u namesake ol the member of the Commune, and who himself had spent six years at the Bagne, ascended at th? head of fifty Federals to the gallery where the principal prisoners were confined. An officer weut round to each cell, summoning first the Archbishop, and tiien in succession M. Boujean. the Abbe Al? lard, Fathers Ducoudray and Clair, and the Abbe Deguerry, Cure of the Madeleine. As the prisoners were summoned they were marched down the road ruunin? round the prison, on each side of which, as far as I could see, were arranged the National Guaid, wno received ;ne captives with insults and epithets which I cannot transcribe. My uutortunate companions were taken into itie courtyard, facing the infirmary, where they fouud a fir? ing party awaiting ihera. Monseigneur D.;r boy stepped forward, and addressing ms assas? sins uttered a lew words ol' p irdon. Two of these men approached the Archbishop, and in luce ol'their companions, knelt before him be? seeching h's lorglveness. The other Federals al once rushed upon them and drove them back with insulting reproaches, and then, turning toward the 'prisoners gave vent to most vio? lent expressions. The commander of the de? tachment felt ashamed of this, and, ordering silence, uttered a frightful oath, telling his men that they were there to shoot-those peo? ple, and not to budy them. The Federals were silenced, and upon the orders of their lieutenants loaded their weapous. Father Allard was placed against the wall and wa? the first shot down. Then M. Darboy, In his turn, fell. The whole six prisoners were thus shot, all eviuclcg the utmost calmness and courage. M. Deguerry alone exhibited a momentary weakness, which was attributable rather to his state ot health than to fear. After this tragical execution, carried out without any formal witnesses aud in the presence ouly of a nu nber of bandits, the bodies ol' the unfor? tunate victims were placed in a cart bolont: tng to a railway company, which had been requisitioned for the purpose, and were taken to Pero la Chaise, where they were pl teed lu the.last trench of the lfo.vse commune' side by side, without even any attempt to cover them with earth." The same witness thus describes Ids own escape: "On Saturday, Ferre, a member of the Commune, aud delegate of the public safety, came lo the prison, and, summoning all those who were under sentence of penal servitude, told them that they were all free. Arms and uniforms were then uiveu to them, and Immediately commenced a scene of slaughter of the suspected prisoners, among whom were 6G gendarmes, who were all killed. Five other gendarmes in the infirmary es? caped. About 7 o'clock, the newly-armed guards being either drunk or wearied with their bloody work, one of the warders ol the iTison, Lan^evln, opened the cell doors and Invited the prisoners to make a rush lo save their lives. Acting upon this advice, M. Evrard and many others not through Ihn gates, and, dispersing Immediately, succeeded iu effecting their escape." A SCRIMMAGE HT ASIATIC WATERS. WASHINGTON, June IC. The Monocacy, PcUos and four steam launches, under command of Commodore Blade, were senr, June 1st, to examine the River Sable, ia Corea, at a point called Difli-. cult Passage, where navigation is most peri? lous. Masked batteries, manned by several thousand Corenns, opened a'heavy fire. Tue French vessels in advance fought gallantly, the American vessel bearing up drove the enemy from their works, and tho tide swept the vessels past the batteries. They anchored an l threw sheH muong the retreating enemy. The Monocacy was slightly injured by running on a sunken rock. On the vessels returning they received no fire from the forts. Two Americans were hurt. Pacific overtures are expected, otherwise the fleet will destroy Ute torts und. take such other measures - us the in? terest ol' civilization demands. The Coreans ar? a treacherous aud warlike people, entirely iadepeudeut of China. THE SAVANNAH FIREMEN DOWN EA8T. BOSTON-, June lt. The Susannah fire company was cordially received to-day. THE CROPS IN SOUTH CAROLINA. Fuirttcl County. The Wihnsboro* News, iii a leading' article on what it is pleased to term "The Fairfield Departure," sjiys: It is gratifying to hear from all sides (hat the crop of Fairfield this year is so fur, take il all round, tiie best crop we have had since th? wav; thut it bas cost, and will have cost much less to uiaKe it; that ol the expeuse very much more than heretofore will have been cash paid down and no credit; and that everybody is confident that ihe colton crop al least will bring a lairer price next winter. This ls the style ol '-departure" we believe in. Let us so io steadily on ibis Hue, and political troubles will lu time disappear. While the Democratic parly are doing us royal service at the Nortti by lettirur. the negro aloue, which will soon compel the. Radicals to let ihe Southern white mau alone, let the South keep aloof from any attempt at a leading part iu national politics, aud fall into line upon tho "Fairfield Depart? ure." Tiiis is a free country. Every man and every county has as much legal right aa Vallandf guam to "depart." It is but. justice that tue press should publish such "departure" and let the people nrflect lipon it. We call the atten? tion ol'the Stale aud of the Southern people, therelore, to "The Fairfield Departure." The following ?3 an extract from a le; ter ol a planler to bisoactors : MOXTICKLLO, FAIRFIELD. CO., June 13. . We have had rain, rain, nothing but rain Ter the last three weeks.

The following extract trora Mr. Greeley's ad? dress* before the Republican Association of New York, upon his return from Texas, de? serves the attention of all candid minds: There is another Influence equally injurious with theirs, and a great deal more detrimen? tal to the fame and character of the Republi? can pariy. I allude to what are known a3 rhe "thieving carpet-baggers." [Applause.] Fel . low-citizens, do not mistake me. All the Northern menin the South are not thieves. The larger part ol' them are honest and good men, some of whom stay there at the peril of their lives, because they believe tl to be their duty. Next to the noble and true women, who have gone down South to teach black children how to read-nobler there are not on the earth than these, whom a stupid, malig? nant, dilapidated aristocracy, often sees flt to crowd into negro hovels to live,, not allowing them to enter any white society, because they are leaching negro children-next to these, who rank as the noblest women iu the South, are the honest and worthy Northern men, who, In the face of social proscription and general obloquy and scorn, stuud firmly, by the Republican cause. The public ls often heedlessly unjust. Let a government have 10,000 official subordinates In power, ot whom 9900 are honest and true men, who do their duty faithfully, while hardly. 100 ure robbers and swindlers, the public will hear a great deal more about ihe 100 robbers than abouE the 9900 true men. The 100 stand out In ihe public eye; they are ul way a doing something which exposes them to the scorn? ful gaze o?the multitude; while the honest and true men pass along silent unri unobserved, and nothing is said, very Utile is thought, of Hiern. All attention is concentrated upon the 100, who are defaulting and stealing, and forg* ing and running away. well, gentlemen, the thieving canpet-bag gers are a mourntul lad; they do exfsl lhere, and I have seen them. [Laughter.] They are fellows who crawled down South in the track of our armies, generally a very safe distance In ihe rear; sotae ol' them on sutlers' wuguus; some bearing colton permits; some o? them looking sharply to see what may turn up; aud Ihey remala there. They nt once ingratiated themselves wllh the blacks-simple, credu? lous, Ignorant men-very glad to welcome and lo follow any whites who professed to be the champions of their rights. Some of these got elected senators, others repr?sentai ives; some sheriffs; some Judges, and .-?o on. And there they stand, right in ihe pabilo eye. stealing and plundering, many of theta with both arms around negroes ami their hand in ihelr rear pockets, seeing ii they caniiol pick a paltry dollar out of them; and Hie public looks at them, does nol regard the hauest Northern men. out calls every '.carpet-bagger* a thief, which is nol the truth by tl good deal. Btu these lellows-many ol' them long-laced aud with eyes rolled up-are greatly -concerned for the education of ihe blacks aud <or Hie sal? vation of their souls. [Greatlaughter.] "Lei. os pray," they say. Btu they spell pray with 'au "e," and, thus spelled, they obey th?upos- 1 lollc injunction to "pray without, ceasing." Fellow-citizens, th? time has been, and still is, when lt was perilous to be known as a Re? publican or nu Abolitionist iu the Sonia, but ft never called the blush of shame to any man's' cheek to be so called, until these thieving ctir pet-baggers went there-never ! [Applause.] They got into the Legislature; they weut to ?3- l suing Slate bonds; they pretended to use them in aid of railroads and other improve- 1 ments; but the Improvements were not made, and the bonds stuck In ihe Issuers' pockets. [Laughter.] That ls the pity of it. "Well," some say, "you have Just such thieves at ihe North." Yes, we do-too many , ol'them! [Applause.] But the South was al? ready Impoverished-was bankrupt-without 1 money, wit hool thrllt, almost without foot!; and these fellows went there robbing and swindling when there was very little to steal, and taking ihe last lett cent shinplaslor off ot the dead men's eyes. They were recognized by the late arlBtocrasy, not merely us thieves, but us enemies. Says Byron's (Jreek min- i strel. - ' I "A tyrant-but our masters thin ? Were billi at least our countrymen." Thus we record the men who annually rob ns at Albany, at Trenton aud at Harrisburg. They do not carry their plunder out of the Slate when they get any. These fellows do ! The South was not merely beaten 1n the late contest, she was profoundly astonished by the result. Her people have not fairly got over ?.heir amazement at their defeat, und what they see of us are ihese thieve?, who repre? sent the North to their jaundiced vision, and, twpresentitig il, they disgrace it. They are Hie greatest obstado to the triumph and per? manent ascendency of Republican principles at me South, and, as such, I denounce them. [Applause.] "Well, men, do you Justify the Ku-Klux V ?fain asked. Justily them iu what? If they I should choose to catch a hundred or two ot j these thieves, place them tenderly across ruils, and bear them quietly and peaceably across ihe Ohio. I should of course condemti the act, us I condemn all violence; but the tears live in a very small onion that .would water al! my sorrow for them. [Laughter and applause.'] Btu ihey do nothing like ilia!; lhey don't go for the thieving carpet-baggers, but they skulk around wretched cabins, uud drag out inoffen? sive negroes, to lash and torture them, merely for ?landing up for their rights as men. For this I do execrate the Ku-Klux. I say they are a disgrace to Southern chivalry, and they would be drummed out Qi the South if lhere were any tme chivalry there. A RAILROAD ISSUE. * . WASUIXUTOX, June IC. Boutwell decides that he.cuu en'-rtalnan appeal from the commissioners of internai revenue, but neither the Interest of ihe gov? ernment nor that of the Central Road will be advanced by hearing ?in appeal in thc case in question.

[Salt Lake CorreBponuen.ee Chicago Tribune.] A Mormon, whom we call Brother Nehl Gib? bons, took a wife Pt the blooming age of 25. He was pious arid Industrious, and seemed to be perfectly satisfied with his bride, whose name wa? unfortunate lor a heroine, being plain Mary Ann. She was the best of wives, and she sang in the choir, bore Nehi a child. and help? ed to cullivate his vine and fig tree. Their apricots and pear trees grew and flourished, their cattle and sheep increased, and nothing seemed wanting in this comfortable establish? ment, which was the envy of every youthful saint. Still, there waa a skeleton In the closet. Mary Ann had a secret aud a passion. She wanted Mehi to take a second wife! This was not only because he was a good aud true man, and devoted and able-bodied, but because she had set her mind upon the other wife he was to take. Mary Ann wanted to provide for her bosom friend. Susan, who was in every way deserving of Noni's affection, and who loved Nehi as purely and as really ai Mary Ann her? self! They had conferred together about it. Mary Ann, who could not be happy where Susan was not-even at Nedi's side-had broken the subject to Susan, and her clearest 3ii8picion9 were confirmed by the secret dis-1 closure that both the ladies loved the same salht. Tar from feeling indignant at this Irank ind forward confidence, Nehl'B wife received lt with delight. She gave her maiden friend every assurance that their mutual- choice was worthy of their united ambition, and they set Lo work to compel Nehi -to accept another Mrs. Gibbons. It being unseemly for Susan to do more than put herself as frequently as possl ole in Mr Gibbon's way, th - plot ripened slow? ly, and, on confering with one of the bishops ii the dniren, he recommended both ladies to ? make the consummation a subject ot prayer. Th ev lilted up their hearts together that lt might be revealer! to Nehl what good srtfta he was neglecting, but Nehi hardened his heart, ind refused to extend his table cloth. He was as yet Ignorant of the new helpmate In? tended for him, but on the Bivgge.stlon.of Mrs. Gibbons that he was not glorifying his mau nood and his family, he said that a pair was ?nough, and that he had no wish to marry. Under these circumstances, a little extreme iiplomacy was adjudged necessary, and Mrs. albbans, to compel a marriage, declared thal tier household work was too onerous, md finally affected to be grievously ill. Mehi 'Gibbons, unable to resist this de? scription of appeal, obeyed the desire ol' ils. wife Mary Ano, but the woman he married-was not Susan ! He was too blind io guess tlte person intended, aud he married in entirely differeut woman. Grave compli? cations ensued unou this precipitate action ol'I S'en! Gibbons. The peace, ot h'.s family was [ lislurbed, o nd none'the less because, after the isual period, ihe second Mrs. Gibbons hada jaby. Mary Aun, redoubling her efforts, met ivitn-uo other success than that Mr. Gibbons ooK a third wife,- and this Urne also it failed .0 be Susau.- The third effort was more di? rectly mude, and with less diplomacy, Mrs. gibbons the ?rst suggesting expressly that. 1er choice was her "busoin .'rleud; a?d the jower ol candor was u?ver so well attested as antills occasion; for Mr. Gibbons answered: 'Had I thought Susan would have accepted ne, my dear Mary Ann, I siirmld have made ter my wife before I proposed lo you !" Tims liety and patience were crowned, fiiendship was rewarded, und Susan und Mary Ann, seing, lovely in life, in wedlock were not di? vided. THE POPE'S JUBILEE. WASHINGTON, June 16.

PASPORTS FOR EGROPE.- The number ol ap? plications fer passports nt the State Depart? ment Is now very large, the suspension of hostilities having let loose a host of voyagers, who put on* Intended tours on account ol the war. During the month of Mtv 1151 pass? ports were ls.-med by the passport bureau of the department, being un increse of 313 over the previous month. A large percentage of applications mude for passports has to be sus? pended ou account of Informalities, chief among which is the failure of naturalized citizens to send their naturalization pa? pers, or the failure of both native and adopted eli ?zens to send their oath of allegiance to the United States. It ls nec?saary lor a native citizen to accom? pany his oath ol allegiance with an affidavit of his citizenship, attested by one other citizen to whom ne is known, and sworn to before a notary or magistrate. On all subsequent occa? sions* a simple reference to the number and date of passport will be sufficient. When the applicant is lo ba accompanied by his wile, children or servants, li will be sufficient to stale the names und ages of such persons, and their relationship to the applicant. The wife, widow or children of a naturalized citizen must transmit the naturalization certificate of the husband, suiting, under oath, that she Is such wife or widow.

With this view, and for the purpose of securing ORIGINAL SERIAL STORIES of a high order, remunerative prizes were offered for the three beat competitive stories. From a large number that were submitted, a committee, composed of disinterested and competent literary gentlemen, selected as the most entertaining, "AVLONA," "TEMPTATION," and "THE LOST . DIAMOND;" which, on opening the seals contain? ing the authors' names, were found to be from the pens of some of the most popular story wri? ters; and these productions are pronounced equal to the stories issued from any weekly jareas in the country. THE PRIZE STORIES will run through at least twenty-six numbers or the paper, and will be followed by three other Original Stories of absorbing Interest, written ex? pressly for the ENQUIRER, entitled, respectively, "DESTINY-A TALE OF BEFORE THE WAR;" "BROKEN CISTERNS;" and ''UNKNOWN"-mak? ing not less than three hundred columns of Origi? nal Stories to be published dU'ing tho year, which, in addition to the "Miscellaneous Read? ing," adapu-d tu all classes, the Agricultural De? partment, containing practical and useful infor? mation for the Farmer; "Reading for the Sab? bath," under the supervision of a clerical gentle? man of marked ability, whose graceful pen embel? lishes bis department In every number: a col atm of Wit and Humor; together with Editorials on appropriate t?pica: a co ra pend of the News, at home and abroad; Commercial and Market Re? ports, and being one of the l?gest papers pub? lished In the South, print* d in the best style on a steam press, the ENQUIRER will supply tuc want of every fireside, and sustain Us reputation as a newspaper for the family circle. PRIZES TO SUBSCRIBERS. With the determination to keep up with the spirit of the timc9-the distribution or Prizes be? ing a popu ar idea-the proprietor has deter? mined to adopt a system of GIFT DISTRIBUTION among the subset Ibers of thc ENQUIRER, but upon a plan different from that so prevalent, lu which brass Jewelry, "dumb watches" and shilling pic? tures are the cider attractions. It is deemed pre? ferable tQ award a substantial gilt, lu an equita? ble manner, upon the following plan: Commencing with the- first week In January, 1871, the name of each yearly subscriber on the list, who has paid In advance, will be placed in a box provided for the purpose.
